Thanks Kwee Lewis!
This is a fun science project to do with preschoolers that I found in “More Mudpies to Magnets“. It can be a little messy, so do it outside if you can!
Making Bubbles!
What you will need:
- 1 small squeeze bottle of vinegar
- 1 small bowl of baking soda
- small spoons
- small cups
Instructions
- Have child put a spoonful of baking soda into cup.
- Then have child start spraying the vinegar into cup.
- Mix until you get the consistency you want!
- Have fun trying to make the most bubbles!
You can find more fun bubble experiments here, including this recipe for a
Bubble Bomb!
What you will need:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons baking soda
- 1/2 cup vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- A paper towel
- Zip-lock baggie
Instructions
- Place the baking soda in the center of a paper towel and fold up the towel into a square package to hold the powder inside.
- Into the zip-lock sandwich bag add half a cup of vinegar and a quarter cup of warm water.
- Put the paper towel package into the mouth of the zip-lock bag and hold it out of the vinegar by pinching the sides of the plastic bag.
- Zip the bag closed then let the paper towel drop into the vinegar. The bag will fill up with carbon dioxide gas and pop with a bang, so make sure it’s in a sink or outside!
Have fun!
